See my above link. Jeep had two different tank options technically. 16 Gallon and 20 Gallon. The ONLY difference being the position of the vent tube.
I am not going to try and make sense of it...cause I can't. But it is a fact.
I have now had 1 that held 20....and 2 that held 16...and one that would take 22.
Go figure....
But the above mod works. It has to do with air pressure on the vent. You can keep filling as long as pressure can bleed through the vent. As soon as the vent get's covered by fuel, you can no longer fill it, since the vent will no longer bleed off. The gas pumps at the station are built to detect that pressure to prevent over filling when topping off.

Least self reliant....what is she supposed to do? Have you SEEN what is going on on Staten Island?
Sorry Justin....seems a little heartless. I sit around feeling bad i can't help.

My question would never be where is the government? I'd ask where is my family and friends? She was way too dramatic. She was not going to die. I highly respect the Japanese and how their people reacted to the earthquake and tsunami.

lol.....I often bite my tongue for you Justin...just for you.
Beer will be a refreshing outlet for a challenging week.
But...I need to take personal responsibility and care for my beer. The best way to do that is provide it the protection that only my belly can provide. It will then be a citizen of my digestive and cardio-vascular system.
I will also be ENTITLED to that beer....because I will have paid for it.

I'm not prepared for a 100 year storm to hit my house, but if it did, I wouldn't just sit inside and wait.
